Our understanding of this universe constantly changes. We all know those - Earth is flat or it is center of universe, on and on.

The black hole is happening. So it exists. So either the observations are wrong or the undeying assumptions are wrong or math / physics we are using to make sense of the event is wrong.

Click-bait articles serve no purpose in advancing science.


Lost as in ‘not meeting anymore since they are using chatbots instead’ or ‘took their lives’?


Both but it's mostly not the therapy chatbots or normal "chatgpt" those are worse enough. It's these dumbass ai girlfriend/boyfriend bots that run on uncensored small models. They get unhinged really fast.


That's SUPER interesting because obviously the researchers didn't look here first. That even if "therapy chatbots" were fixed, you'd still have a massive space where the true problem is.

On the ground, it's wildly different. For me, a very left field moment.


I see a lot of ads for girlfriend chatbots, either blatant or with all kinds of thin disguises (the last ad I remember was a "personal assistant who will do anything", but "therapy" is also a popular framing). In comparison I barely see or hear anything about professional not-sexy therapy chatbots.

I imagine if you go to psychology conferences you get exposed to the professional side a lot more, but for the average internet user that's very different. I wouldn't be surprised if the AI girlfriend sites had many, many orders of magnitude more users



Of all the things happening in the world right now, this is somehow important!


AI Slop?


AI isn't this funny.


Yep. I loved working with almost all people. Those I hated working - though minor - made it horrible. They had some ‘title’ to throw around and made everyone’s work and life miserable.

And how much ever feedback you provide and how much ever ‘culture’ talk goes on, as the saying goes ‘one bad apple spoils the whole damn bunch’.

There is lot of truth in ‘you join a good company, but leave a bad manager’ - or bad people, I would say.



Coincidentally I was just thinking about a wireless lamp. I would buy a very sleek one for garage - to avoid rewiring? Are there any plans for such a model.


Thanks! That’s exactly why I got it no rewiring needed. It sticks anywhere and works great in garages too. Here’s the one I use: shopinfinitylamp.store/product/infinity-wall-lamp


Hype is already busting? Bubble is already bursting??


All advice basically comes to this: “Look inside. The answer is within you.”

Everything else is noise. That said, finding that answer that lies within might take a day or a decade or never (my case - between decade and never!)

Be well. Be kind to yourself meanwhile.
